AI Analysis

AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.

I look for durable economics and a margin of safety, and Six Flags does not offer much of either today. It runs regional amusement and water parks, which can have some local captive demand, but the business is capital-intensive, seasonal, and tied to consumer discretionary spending. The filed numbers are ugly: in FY2025, the fiscal year ended 2025-12-31, revenue was $3.1B but net income was -$1.6B and diluted EPS was -$15.89; in FY2024, the fiscal year ended 2024-12-31, net loss was $231.2M, or -$3.22 per share, after FY2023, the fiscal year ended 2023-12-31, earned $124.6M, or $2.42 per share. In fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-06-28, revenue was $864.9M and net income was -$202.6M, or -$1.99 per share. At the 2026-10-13 close of $10.20, the FairStock calculations show a negative P/E of -0.59, P/B of 9.11, ROE of -143.16%, ROCE of 2.44%, and D/E of 14.55. The Altman Z-Score is -0.29, which points to financial distress. On the positive side, trailing free cash flow is $150.1M, a 14.4% FCF yield on a $1.0B market cap, and the Piotroski F-Score is 6/9. Beta is 0.37, and the shares sit near the low end of the 52-week range of $9.80-$27.37. Still, a high FCF yield can be a value trap if losses persist and debt needs refinancing. This is a Lynch-style turnaround: a loss after earlier profits. The balance sheet and earnings record do not yet provide a clear margin of safety.

In plain English: Six Flags runs amusement and water parks in North America. The business looks weak now: it lost a lot of money in its latest reported year and carries heavy debt. At $10.20 a share, the price looks cheap compared with the cash it generates, but expensive compared with its losses and accounting value.
